704 Las Colindas Rd, San Rafael, CA 94903

Property Description

There are roughly 900 Eichlers in Terra Linda. This one is not like the others. In 2002, 704 Las Colindas was taken down to its bones and rebuilt from the ground up. Not renovated, but reconstructed entirely, with ceilings raised to 12 feet, systems replaced, and every finish chosen deliberately. Step inside and the atrium greets you with a skylight that opens, mature plants growing in built-in planters, and warm wood floors that run the length of the space. The enclosed atrium entry was originally a koi pond. From there, the house opens into one generous, light-filled room where the living area anchors around a dual-mode fireplace and a wall of glass looking out to the backyard and the surrounding open space. The kitchen features a 48" Miele range with six burners and griddle (new 2026), dual wall ovens (new 2024), custom 72" cabinetry, and quartz counters wrapped in windows with garden views in every direction. All three bathrooms are spa-appointed with heated floors and Toto fixtures, and the Jack-and-Jill suite has a Jacuzzi tub. Lutron HomeWorks lighting, whole-home surround sound, dual-zone HVAC, Baldwin hardware, solid wood doors, copper pipes and trim, and custom built-ins throughout. The craftsmanship here is the kind that reveals itself slowly, long after you've moved in. Outside, a mature palm tree anchors a private patio with hill views, a bocce court, hot tub pad, mature fruit trees, and a statement palm, all at the base of the Terra Linda-Sleepy Hollow Divide. Oversized EV-ready 2-car garage with finished interior, office nook, and 3-car driveway. New roof 2021, exterior paint 2025, sewer lateral replaced and certified 2018. The neighborhood matches the house in ways that are hard to manufacture. Terra Linda is where residents voted in 1975 to permanently preserve the surrounding hillsides rather than develop them, where Lou's Takeaway sells out before noon, where Scotty's Market has been on the same corner since 1957, and where the community pool, the trails, several nursery schools, award-winning Vallecito Elementary, and Highway 101 are all within a few minutes of each other. It is the kind of place people discover and decide never to leave. 4 beds, 2.5 baths, 1,830 sq. ft. Central heat/AC, instant hot water pump, ample storage, two-car garage, and additional two-car driveway parking.
